If you're like me you enjoy Easter Egg Hunts, egg dying & making fun desserts with the kids every year.
Some years back I discovered a fun/unique egg dying technique from Martha Stewart that my God-children still love today. It's not as messy as some of the more traditional methods and produces some fabulous designs. You wrap the eggs in silk (design side on the egg) then re-wrap them in plain fabric before boiling.

Note: Don't limit yourself; use ties, old scarves, boxers, torn blouses, etc.
One shortcut I used was to buy a cheap set of plain handkerchiefs. They were the perfect size for re-wrapping the eggs before boiling (vs. cutting old sheets, etc.) which cut down on prep time.
Another Easter favorite of mine is the Jello Poke Cake. It's easy to make & can be done as a sheet or layer cake. Once the cake has cooled holes are poked in it, then jello is poured over the holes before the cake is cooled again & topped with cool whip to create a tasty treat with a fun, colorful filling.
Note: For pink filling use strawberry kiwi jello.
